Our little man is not so little any more, for today he turned 3!
Since today was a school day today we actually told him it was his birthday on Sunday since that was the day of his party and present extravaganza! Would it be confusing to a 3 year old to tell him hey it's not your birthday today but you are gong to have a party anyway and be overwhelmed with presents....and then on your birthday we wont be doing anything! ummmm, perhaps.
Mum and Dad arrived after a 9 day trek up from Adelaide on Friday and then we spent Saturday preparing for the Sunday lunch. We made cheesecake, flourless chocolate cake, quiches, chorizo sausage rolls, warm chicken rolls, dips, mum and dad brought some amazing prawns up from Iluka. (oh my they were so amazing!) ...and of course some animal themed cupcakes for the birthday boy. Maybe we went a bit overboard again....but he is worth it.
We started the day with the unveiling of the Trampoline!!!!!! which Cam and Dad put up on Saturday. Needless to say it was a hit....what kids doesn't love a trampoline!?
He also got a new scooter and and array of new toys from all our wonderful friends and family that joined us on the day! Thank you so much to everyone for sharing the day with us and for your generous gifts and to everyone afar for all the gifts and cards sent in the mail....Oskar seriously loves them all and is playing with them all on high rotation.
It was little Asha's birthday the day before Oskar's so it was fun to celebrate together!
The days weather couldn't have been more perfect and the sun was out all day as we enjoyed our birthday garden party.

Here are a few more highlights from the perfect day!
Happy Birthday to my darling boy and we are so proud of your achievements. You bring us so much happiness and laughter and we look forward to watching you develop and grow even more over the next year...and the next ...and the next.......and I'm sure like so many proud parents out there....we sometimes still can't believe we made him.
This was Oskar at 5 months!...

I LOVE that picture of him on the trampoline, he's so gorgeous! Especially with the tail and feet! Looks like a wonderful day. You looked lovely too, I don't think I've seen that skirt before (or heard about it)... That will look great in winter with tights & boots!
